Velvet Rose & Oud

RATHER than the fruity and floral scents we're accustomed to for spring, Jo Malone London has blended sensual Damask rose with exotic oud to create the latest addition to its Cologne Intense Collection. SEE 10 GREAT SPRING/SUMMER 2012 SCENTS Velvet Rose & Oud features clove and praline alongside its eponymous ingredients, and joins the five existing Cologne Intense fragrances as a summer limited edition. Packaged in a sleek black bottle, the scent is the ideal summer choice for those who favour heady, intense scents -whatever the season - whilst the brand's pretty Plum Blossom Cologne will satisfy those looking for something super-feminine.
